CABLING:
a. Two boxes mean two smart controllers? Or I would have only a KC868-H32 Pro? If two controllers, how con I manage both as one ?
--> answer:
Yes， multi controller all connect to your router, they all integrate to home assistant, use by one software, different controller not need wire connect with each other, just only connect with ethernet cable to your router.
b. With one Smart DB 32CH, how many wall switches can I connect?
--> answer:
MAX 32 channel switch button. But sometime will have 2 or 3 buttons control one light, that cost 1 channel.
Do you have a basic cabling/wiring diagram of how to connect switches to Smart DB ?

Does one Wall Swich of 6 buttons count as ONE digital input?
--> answer:
need 6 digital input port, it connect with KC868-AK switch board, not connect to H32B Pro relay controller directly.
Attached is the amount of Switches (20) and Bulbs (56) that I will have with the amount of buttons per switch.
The intention is to build one Smart Distribution Box for each flor (2 in total with one KC868-Server) and use LED bulbs (12v)
Please provide input on how many channels I should consider for this setup. Also take into account 5 Cameras to be connected to the system.
Really appreciate your help
